there must be community and personal eff
fort. Money must be "put up" by some
one, and that " some one :" each citizen
able to contribute his mite-dimes if not
dollars-should consider TO be himself.
There has been talk enough" to speak
plainly. What is now needed is coin, act
i've men, vigor of exertion, determination
to do, as well as pass resolutions and
boom in the columns of newspapers.
The centers of population are being rap
idly determined, and along with them the
centers of trade and commerce fixed. Let
us look to it that we are not left among
the inactive and visited by all that sue
cessful rivalship means.
Men with lands to sell must do
something more now than offer them.
They must loosen the purse strings, con-
tribute two acres to sell every ten, if need
be; merchants with goods to sell must
forego some present gain to assure them
selves of greater profit presently, for what
is to be done must be done now. Three
months hence it may be too late.
How much has the great North contrib
uted to the immigration work inaugurated
by Sacramento business men two years ago,
and mainly sustained bysthem ever since
In plain words, comparatively nothing.
How much have the mass of our people
in Sacramento contributed comparable
with the sums expended bv a few business
men in aid of immigration work Prac-
tically nothing Now, both Of these classes
of people must be up and doing. Stockton
is raising $4,000 = that is, $4,000 a
monitor this express purpose; San Jose
Is raising nearly as large sum, and has
her agency already established. 1t re-
mains to be seen how many thousands
is in earnest. If she DEGREES
it, she can, within year or two, increase
her contributing population three-fold.
The result will be lively demand for all
kinds of labor, much enhanced values,
production, advanced trade,
renewed industries, large investments, new
life to agriculture and all the followings
of settled and heurishing country, peo-
pied with desirable class of home seekers

two men with revolver, wounding Crow
in the arm, who then grappled with him,
taking his revolver from him and killing
him Riley. at the first shot, put wagon
and fence between him and the Indian
with the rifle, who was unable to get shot
at him, and upon whom Crow and Land
now began firing. He escaped, but is be-
lieved to be rounded. 1t is not known

THE strike of the coal-handlers at the
East, more directly than any recent event
of that kind, affects the public convenience
and will serve to arouse public interest in
the strike question. 1t will contribute to
the public judgment that the strike is the
most unwise action labor can take in its
own interest. The public will be punished
by this great strike causelessly steamship
lines will suffer; public travel be impeded,
and in the end the strikers will return to
work, losers by precisely the period OF
idleness in which they indulge and all the
consequent debt and suffering it entails.

| have been in the telegraph business for
more than twenty years, and for the past
five years have been troubled with what
is called Writer'S Cramp or Telegraphers
Paralysis. At times my arm became so
weak that could not use it in sending dis
patches and had to use my left. Have spent
many restless nights, the pain reaching
from my hand up into my shoulder. Tried
everything l could hear of, but with
scarcely any relief. Having strained my
left side few weeks ago, got one of ALI
cocks Plasters, as | usually do in such
cases, and accidentally happened to see
where some one had cured a weak wrist by
using one of these Plasters. / got another
at once and cut it in two and put one-half
around my wrist. In less than two days
after the pain had entirely left my wrist

nearly as well as ever. | write this hoping
it will reach the eyes of others who may
be afflicted as | was, as | know there are

THE HOG BUTcHERs.-A mass meeting

In his opening remarks President Raabe
said that the object of the meeting was to
put new life into the anti-Chinese move

by the Butchers Union, and chiefly by
means of the boycott. Since May l, 1856,
they had displaced at least 500 Chinese
butchers. and had cut down the revenue of
the Chinese meat dealers by $4,000 a
month. Where the Chinese butchers for
merly disposed of 700 or 800 hogs day,
they now sell not more than 100 day,
perhaps little more than is necessary for
their own consumption. The other speak

WOMEN are progressing in the exercise
of at least their physical rights, and one
of these is the handling of firearms.
Thus yesterdays Geographic dispatches
detail two instances in which womanly
courageous conduct, by the aid of weap-
ons, meted out just punishment to Offend
ers and defended themselves from murder
GUS assault. Mrs. Carey, of Camden, Ark,
whose husband had been shot down before
her and was in turn assaulted by the
ruffianly murderer, who threatened to
shoot her, promptly Drained the fellow,
clubbing a rifle for that useful pur-
pose. Quite as promptly the plucky
woman was exonerated by the Justice of
the Peace. Up in Pennsylvania, on the
same day, cowardly desperate of ugly
temper attempted to murder his 15-year-
old wife. He chased her about the house,
brandishing huge knife, with which he
repeatedly sought to butcher her. Finally
the child-woman did that she was justified
in doing at first-she seized pistol and
planted two bullets so neatly near his jug
ular vein that he fell dead. The only re-
greet chivalrous men can feel in the matter
is, that the dispatches fail to recite as
prompt liberation of the wife and her
exoneration by Pennsylvania authorities,
as in the case of the Arkansas woman.

as the end approaches, the Commission
will draw nearly the entire amount
Of the revenue provided. Thus APP
probation of the market value
, of the bonds will not only cease, but their
depreciation will be encouraged. This
scheme under which the Commission
operates has had the test of fifteen years
of trial, and now has the unanimous APP
proval of the Board of Trade representing
great material interests of the municipal
ity.
But if the Commission is blotted out by
the repeal of the law. as is openly and
unwisely advised and advocated, the S478,-
900 of bonds it now holds for the city will
be absolutely cancelled, be simply bonds
paid up, and have no more any legal
existence, since the city cannot except
under the Act sought to be repealed,
hold them as vital claims for payment.
Thereupon the detached coupons will
cease to be calls for interest, and the en-
tire spot" of $4,000, to use vulgarisms,
will annually be " raked in" by the bond
holders. The obvious effect would be to
send the bonds up to par with rush.
In short, the repeal would be worth $780,,
600 or 100000 to Daniel Meyer ct ais.
This being unquestionably the effect, it
would be legitimate to conclude that those
who advise the repeal are working directly
in the interest of the bondholders. If it
is worth fee to them to have the repeal
accomplished, then the advocates of the
repeal, if not directly retained, are
gratuitously doing that which is worth a
round sum. and they ought to be paid for it.

Origin of sIanting Roofs.

To find the source from which the Eu-
rOpean nations have derived the art Of
building in stone, we must look to the
land of the PharaOhs. From Egypt the
craft passed to Greece, and from the
Greeks it was taken up by the Romans, to
be by them disseminated through the
north and west of Europe in the process
Of colonization. The similarity, in re-
gard to the constructive parts Of the an
cient Greek buildings to some of those
fOund in Egypt OF older date, affords
strong confirmation of the tradition that
the Greeks borrowed the art from the
Egyptians. The Greeks, however, in
adopting it, added a new feature, the
pediment, and the reason for this addi-
ton is easy to find. Egypt is practically
rainless. All the protection from the
climate required in a palace or temple in
such a country is shelter from the sun by
day and from the cold by night, and for
this fat roof, supported by walls, or
pillars with arcitraves, is quite sufficient;
but when, as in all European countries,
rain has to be taken into account, a slant
ing roof becomes necessity
The Greeks, with their eye for SYM
metry, provided for this by forming the
roof with central ridge, at an obtuse
angle, from which it sloped down equally
on either side. The triangular space thus
formed at the end of the building, above
the architrave, was occupied by the pedi-
ment, and this part of the facade, which
owed its birth to the exigencies of eli
mate, was thenceforth regarded as so es-
sential to the artistic completeness of the
work that it was said that if q temple
were to be erected in the celestial regions,
where rain would not be possible, the ped
ment could not be omtted.-PopuIar
